3 Best Dance Schools in Fort Lauderdale, FL

Hands down the BEST dance studio. My daughter has been dancing here since she was very young and is now about to be a pointe dancer. The teachers are very talented, and very graceful with the way they talk to the girls and treat the dancers and us as parents. Front desk is also pleasant as well. Costumes get more beautiful every year for the end of year shows. My daughter really enjoys it here and the friendships she has made over the years she’s been here and I am so impressed by her progress every year. 100% recommend sending your dancers here.

Our home away from home. Impeccable teaching and positive attitudes. The teachers are like princesses- engaging, beautiful and teaching manners along with the love of dance. Miss Bonnie smiling and helpful. Miss Linda accommodating and prompt. As a bonus my son can even get his homework done, and there’s a yard to play outside with friends he’s met.

Without a doubt, The best dance studio in South Florida! Everyone is so caring and so supportive and they’ve been doing this so long, that their processes are smooth And organized! The caliber of teachers is outstanding and honestly, we love this place.

My husband and I went to Fred Astaire for private lessons for our wedding first dance and we are so happy we chose to work with them. Kennedy made us feel so comfortable and excited about the entire process and we looked forward to our weekly lessons with her. She not only choreographed our entire dance (a salsa- no easy feat!) but she paid attention to every detail, made sure we were happy and comfortable doing the moves, and was so creative with her changes when we weren’t comfortable. The studio has a really great community of regulars and each week we got to see some familiar faces. At the end of all the lessons we did a “showcase” where we performed the dance in front of a group of people we had come to recognize through the many lessons and it was such a relief to get the nerves of performing in front of a bunch of people out of our system. We can’t wait to come back to learn different styles of dance during their group lessons. Thank you thank you thank you Kennedy and the whole Fred Astair family.

As someone who didn’t have any social dance experience, I will vouch for the studios ability to walk you through the initial discomfort and learning curve of dancing. The instructors (Kennedy, Dubraska, Stas and Rusland) will tailor their teaching style to meet your needs. I highly recommend coming in and giving it a try. I also recommend taking the group classes as this will accelerate your learning. Everyone is friendly and happy to see new students join the group. Don’t worry about looking foolish or not knowing what to do. Everyone went through that phase and don’t expect you to know everything from day one. I have also met many wonderful people (instructors and fellow students) who will not hesitate to give a helping hand. It’s a great community to be a part of. People here will genuinely celebrate your improvements.

Kennedy is an amazing dance instructor. She took two people who could barely walk straight and gave us a moment and wedding first dance we’ll never forget. We loved her incredible energy and patience – it gave us comfort and really made us both enjoy the entire process.
